"Propet is one of the brands that I feel safe ordering online because the sizing and fit is consistent. I was so sure I was going to love these shoes, but sadly, it didn't work out between us.The shoes are made of an airy mesh and feature well-placed "windows", which would have made them great for folks who like well ventilated shoes. The tread seems grippy, and not at all awkward, like some shoes with unusual tread patterns can be. The color (light blue with gray) is versatile and subdued. Overall, the appearance is in-line with other Propet shoes in this line.I wear a 9.5 in this brand, and compared to other Propet shoes in my closet, they are a slight bit shorter than older 9.5's. Not enough for me to size up, though. The heel fits true, but the mid-shoe is tight and the insole presses uncomfortably into my arch. The area from mid-foot to toes has plenty of room - so much room that the front part of my shoe slid around.I played around with the stretchy cord that is meant to adjust the shoe, but there doesn't seem to be a way to tighten the toe area without tightening the arch area as well.I returned these shoes to the store, where I learned that if you use reward certificates on an online purchase that is returned to the store, that you forfeit those certificates. So I'm twice as sad now."
